IDE Practical
In the IDE Practical you will be asked to create a NetBeans (or Eclipse if you prefer) project with two files which are provide to you as web links. This is similar to how a project was created in Lab 7.
You will then be asked to make small additions, about seven lines of Java code, to one of these files.
Then you will be asked to create a ZIP file from your project using a locally installed program zip202 and to submit your ZIP file to the course moodle page.
